Cool I’ve reopened the PR if you or anyone else would be keen to take it over then feel free to, otherwise I will try to work on it when I have some time.
Upstream already came up with a candidate fix that makes ld.bfd just 10% slower than ld.gold on pandoc: PR33530#c5

Given that the intent of this discussion was to gather consensus on a go/no-go and we’re all +1 for it, I’ve gone ahead and created a tracking issue for this.
We can refer more closely to PRs and commits over there (I can’t close this thread but I suppose we can discuss things generally here if we want to)

Upstream merged the fix as PR33530#c11 and below. Will be a part of binutils-2.46 release.
